Students and ����ֱ�� supporters in the Boone, North Carolina, area are invited to hear ����ֱ�� Senior Vice President Robert Shibley speak at Appalachian State University (ASU) tonight at 7 p.m. in the Beacon Heights of Plemmons Student Union.

Robert’s talk is just one part of a series of free speech events at ASU led by Young Americans for Liberty ASU. In addition to attending Robert’s talk, ASU students will have the opportunity to participate in a Free Speech Wall set up on Sanford Mall, a student-led panel on free speech, and an Open Art Night, where an ASU philosophy professor will discuss free expression through the arts and censorship.

Torch readers will remember that ����ֱ�� intervened last year after ASU tenured professor Jammie Price was placed on administrative leave when students alleged that she had created a hostile environment. Appalachian State currently has a “yellow light” rating in ����ֱ��’s Spotlight database.
